Both the cam (CMP) and crank (CKP) sensors are listed in the pic. I believe both are accessible without removing anything major.

thanx for the diagram, i was planning on bringing my car to a mechanic to replace the Camshaft Position Sensor but he quoted me too much so i figured i could do a DIY and i did, with the aid of your Diagram. again, thanx.

Archebald 23,
hey I just installed the KPS on my tib not hard at all, just make sure its set in there correctly before you start the car again. the best way I found top install was to go from the bottom and over the starter (pure fill, not way to see what your doing from there) good luck.

P.S. for the location of the sensor its right about the starter. dont have to remore anything and the part only cost about 65.00 dollars...

10mm 1/4 drive socket that's all

Default Hate to rain on parade ----

But the picture posted above is severely incorrect !!

Do you have the 4 cyl or the 6 cyl ??


6 cyl:

The Cam Position Sensor (TDC sensor) is located on the rear of head for bank 1, stuck into an aluminum cap/cover thing...

The Crank Position Sensor (CKP) is mounted to radiator side of block,,, behind the starter..


4 cyl :

CKP is on radiator side if engine, kinda in line with cylinder #4

CMP is on cylinder head, intake side, near the timing belt cover, sticks out of head
